black bridesmaid dresses

Original post by ostrichhh

my bridesmaids and i love this black bill levkoff BM dress with a rose colored sash but havent ordered it yet. its a lovely dress. but i am hearing things from people like my mother such as 'the pictures will be dull' and 'black isnt a great color for summer.' its making me second guess the dress. do you think my pics will be dull? is black bad for summer? ps- i want to use hot pink and light pink flowers and the dress is tea length. wedding is a friday night.
do any of u guys have pics of your weddings with black BM dresses?
thanks!

we went with a dark grey for the bm dresses and I dont think it looked dull at all. I would just make sure the flowers are a bright color.

I think if you like the dresses, you should go for it. My bridesmaids wore a black dress with white beading, and I had a summer wedding. There was plenty of color with the flowers and the mens' kilts.

I am most likely going with black - deep red and yellow roses, a few daisys and other flowers...I love the way it looks.

i love blackBM's dresses. i was a BM in a wedding with black gowns & it is the only BM dress that I have ever worn again after using it for a wedding. I think they are esp. elegant for an evening affair.

Haven't picked dresses yet, but I am using black! You will have flowers that will stand out against the black. I think its very elegant!!!
